Hi Cathy,

They do attract bees, not a huge amount though. Plus, they just bloom for a few weeks.

Hi Christine,

We usually don’t reach peak color until sometime in November — we have lost a lot of leaves early this year due to the constant rain we have had for weeks. Still a lot of color though.

Does bee balm attract a lot of bees? We were thinking of putting it near a swimming pool and we certainly would not want bees around there!

You keep your leaves for a good long while down there. How vibrant can it get? Nature’s big color bust before winter…

Beautiful pictures Sherry, It looks like I’ll have to enjoy your fall colors now as the heavy rain and strong winds left my trees cold and naked…

Thanks, Louise. The tall white and gray poplar trunks make a nice contrast to all that color.

Comment on Fall Lake by Sherry

Louise, this lake is right near the TN-NC state line. I live very close to TN, so that’s why it looks similar. :)

We have had so much torrential rain for the past month and a half and the leaves aren’t quite as pretty as they usually are around here.

Thanks, Louise. I have definitely learned some lessons this year on what not to plant in my yard.

Hi Tom,

Wow, 25 years old!
I just don’t know what could be wrong. Do they have red spots on the leaves? You might read the comments above and click on the links about leaf spot disease. If it’s not that, maybe try pruning them back hard in the spring and hopefully they will renew themselves. Sometimes the oldest wood on shrubs will start to die back and they need to be pruned to stimulate fresh, new growth. Good luck with yours, hope they recover.
